Party Like a Movie Star - Sort of...

Orson Welles Estate

 If you really want to wow your friends and family why not have your next party at the former home of an actor, director or pop star. A company called Eventup has a huge selection of properties (that is real estate lingo) that you can rent for a special occasion. Some of them once belonged to a celebrity. We don't have any connection to Eventup. We post this information just because it is kind of fun.

Internet Film Critic June Mason Speaks!

The Internet gives everyone the opportunity to express their particular point-of-view to the world. Some people choose to express opinions, but remain anonymous. That is somewhat understandable given how unpredictable the world can be. However, when you choose to unleash your views on the world you should take on the responsibility to stand behind them. Some people do - like June Mason. He is a young fellow that reviews movies. We present his charming review of These Amazing Shadows.
